By participating in this Contest, you are signifying your agreement that you have read and agree to be legally bound by the terms and conditions of these Official Rules and Regulations (the “Rules”).
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. MAKING A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE OR OTHERWISE IMPACT YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING IN THIS CONTEST. To enter, go to www.redbull.ca/racingfactoryVIP (the “Website”) and follow the on-screen instructions to play the Red Bull Racing game (the “Game”). The basic object of the Game is to correctly answer as many questions as you can within the allotted time frame per question (each, a “Game Play”). There is no limit to the number of times you can play the Game. After completing a Game Play, you will automatically be presented on-screen with a Score (the “Score”) for the applicable Game Play. If you are satisfied with your Score, you can submit it to the Contest Leaderboard (the “Contest Leaderboard”) by completing the Official Contest Entry Form (the “Entry Form”) with all required information and submitting it in accordance with the on-screen instructions. Submitting the Entry Form will also earn you one (1) Entry (each, an “Entry” and collectively, the “Entries”) in the random draw for a Secondary Prize. The Sponsor’s decisions with regards to all aspects of the Game – including, but not limited to, the Score allocated for each Game Play – are final and binding without right of appeal.
IMPORTANT NOTE: JUST BECAUSE A SCORE APPEARS ON THE CONTEST LEADERBOARD DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE ENTRANT ASSOCIATED WITH THAT SCORE IS A “WINNER” OR “FINALIST”. ANY OR ALL SCORES MAY BE VERIFIED BY THE SPONSOR IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION AT ANY TIME AND FOR ANY REASON. THE CONTEST LEADERBOARD IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PROPOSES ONLY. ONLY THE SPONSOR CAN DEEM AN ENTRANT TO BE AN ELIGIBLE WINNER/WINNER AND/OR AN ELIGIBLE FINALIST/FINALIST.
